Lets get to the best part about this film first and foremost. The 3D Animation and art style is gritty and awe inspiring in some parts. However and can lose focus at some points turning more into a psychedelic trip and losing the tone it recently had set. For 3D animation in Anime usually has a connotation of being a bad thing that doesn't mix but in recent time has gotten better and this film displays some positive light on why some 3D animation could be good. But its still not flawless. Next is the music which is hands down the best part about this film and the only reason you would watch it all the way through. But having this be the highlight of your film is odd to say the least. Because if right off the bat, if you don't like the music then there really isn't anymore of a reason to try to continue "watching". Where it really falls apart is the story. There is and there isn't one. I think I can speak for everyone that was trying to follow along subtle hints and stuff in the beginning. But once your main character is driving towards the huge tyrant vehicles one with a money grubbing gun freak and the other a pompous guy who is all about smoking poison. Once you hit the freeze frame at around the 10 minute mark and the movie goes into a weird psychedelic dance scene. All brain cells go out of the window and your just in it for the music and the set peaces. So overall enjoyment was fine for what it was. However I just feel like they could've gotten a more emotional pull from people had they focused a little bit more on story telling. I really enjoy things that don't outright explain everything that is going on but just set the world and drop subtle things here and there. Then really rely on the viewer to try to put things together almost like becoming a conspiracy theorist with visual storytelling. The fact that this Film did not do that. I felt was a very big oversight.
